Le Blacas

Room airy, peaceful and clean. A bit out of centre and lacked few basics - only 2 cups and no hairdryer. Owner however insisted on us paying cash on day of leaving, driving us to cash point, which cost us slightly more than advertised due to bank charges.

The owner was not there. We were travelling form the US and could not get internet connection to contact the owner. We went by the property twice and no one answered the door (although someone was in the house as the car door and front door were open). This property should NOT be listed on ******* but as a bed and breakfast as room was part of the house. The yard of the house was a mess and resembled a junk yard

Under other circumstances, I might have enjoyed Le Blacas more. It would suit a family perhaps more accustomed to "gites" than I am. There was no hospitality, no one greeted me. I found my way to a largish room that could accommodate 4 people (3 beds, one a double). It was quite cold, and not until the morning did I discover the plu-in radiator in a corner. The bathroom windows were not covered, limiting my privacy, nor did the door to the room lock. Eventually a man came by to check in on me. Not a word was spoken, either in French or English. There is an ample yard with interesting objets d'art and a trampoline. The location is ideal, near Moustiers Ste. Marie, but very quiet. The place was clean, water temperature and pressure in the bathroom and shower were ok.

Nice and quiet place. Great place to stay while exploring the area
